- Example (Video was a 1 on 1 closing the gap/angle drill)
- Plymouth Campus Tier 2’s got some 1 on 1 angling work today. Usually use this drill for the D, however it works just as well for F’s in the NZ! Goal was to put the D and F’s feet to the test. A few points of emphasis; stick and body positioning, being able to match speeds, and gap. Forwards attacking changing speeds, being able to read the D, and pushing to the middle to get more room to the outside. #maphockey #nhl #hockeytraining #ushl
